The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has changed the way people work around the world.
Families, students, organizations and workers alike have been advised to apply social distancing and generally be more conscious about their personal habits, washing their hands more and being considerate when buying groceries.
In this situation, working from home for many has become the norm. Even major tech firms are aware this can’t be avoided, with Amazon, Microsoft and Apple all asking employees to work remotely.
Schools and higher education institutions are also following suit, shifting to working and teaching remotely.
Businesses can’t simply stop operating because of the coronavirus and it’s important to ensure employees don’t feel like they’re working alone when they’re working from home.
Here are our tips for keeping employee morale up at this challenging time.
